PS - For those who don't want to bother following the link to Mahler 3 & 4, the comment is along the lines of "did he write anything that's not as tasteless?".

Christi is a five year old girl, right?

As someobody who has been repeatedly suckered into trying to give helpful replies to this member's questions....would it not be better just simply to ignore him/her/it??

Just an idea

Not sure, Dave - could be one of our disgruntled 'former members' returning for some fun & games?

Exactly my technique here. If the one line posts spread; let us know. The delete button is only a click away.

Oh, great. Now I have to type more words than necessary just to make sure that my post is at least two lines long and thus not subject to this rule.  I sure hope I do not get carpal tunnel syndrome as a result.

Congratulations and felicitations. (One line, but there you are.)

Did he write any good songs?

(Sorry, I couldn't resist it!!)

A ban is a band without the "D" -- a band with no drums.

Some of us try to be concise. However, since feelings are so strong, no more one-liners for me. This trial for Breach has been debated over and over p. 2again among lawyers and barristers, some contending that "there was no evidence at all to go to the Jury" as to a promise; others insisting on mis-direction, and that there was evidence that ought not to have been admitted.  The law has since been changed, and by later Acts both Mrs. Bardell and Mr. Pickwick would have been allowed to tell their stories and to have been cross-examined.  Mrs. Bardell was almost justified in supposing that Mr. Pickwick was offering his hand when he was merely speaking of engaging a man-servant.  But then the whole would have been spoiled.  Under the present systems, this would all have come out.  Mr. Pickwick, when it came to his turn, would have explained what his proceedings meant.  It is a most perfect and vivid satire on the hackneyed methods of the lawyers when dealing with the witnesses.  Nothing can be more natural or more graphic.  It is maintained to something between the level of comedy and farce: nor is there the least exaggeration.  It applies now as it did then, though not to the same topics.  A hectoring, bullying Counsel, threatening and cruel, would interfere with the pleasant tone of the play; but it is all the same conveyed.  There is a likeness to Bardell v. Pickwick in another Burlesque case, tried in our day, the well-known "Trial by Jury," the joint work of Mr. Gilbert and the late Sir Arthur Sullivan.  The general tone of both is the same and in the modern work there is a general Pickwickian flavour.  Sir Arthur's music, too, is highly "Pickwickian," and the joint effort of the two humorists is infinitely diverting.  The Judge is something of a Stareleigh.

Maybe I should change my alias to "ban".

Leave the one-liners to the experts.

I like that!

Typical elitists!
